More progress made that's the bottom end rebuilt   with the polished and powder coated and painted parts  

Had to order some new pulleys that are are now on the way that will delete the aircon and power steering pump off the auxiliarys

Also had to take the ported and polished head back to the seller as it turned out it was a lemon, so now my original head is in for a overhaul and port and polish


Heres some photos


Now I need to find what cams and carbs to run for the build

I bought one of those strut braces, and quickly got rid,  felt about as flimsy as a flimsy thing and im sure did nothing..

Good to know, you've kept it, all that hard work you put in seemed a shame not to enjoy it!

What is the double window switch surround from?

Whip
/wip/
Noun - Car

When the steering wheel was first put into use in automobiles, it was called the whip. The term has now been generalised to classify any automobile.
